All of Joe's sketches were donated to Leeds Art Gallery shortly after his death and a further donation was made in 2018 with all his sketches for "Riding through the Ridings".

There are also 21 sketches in collection at the Brotherton Library in Leeds University, some of which were featured in the Treasures of the Brotherton Gallery Exhibition Celebration "Rights and Romance: Representing Gypsy Lives" in March 2018.
